Took this at around 1 AM last night. Spending a few days on the Danish island of Bornholm (sort of a second home for me). This is the first time I've tried to get a starry sky. I'll get better with time, hopefully ;) Still, this didn't turn out too bad.

This time of year is very unpredictable here, weather wise, as often there's a lot of snow. This year it's looking like we'll have a mild and somewhat green holiday season.

Carl Cosby: I think some of those are BS, they don't mention animal factory farming with regards to the emissions but I've come to question everything that I read now :)

Joachim Dyndale: It's impossible to go into detail on something as complicated as CO2 emissions in a post like that, and it does mention there are significant hurdles to jump through, but we are on the right track. Probably too slowly, but the pace is likely to accelerate.

Questioning things is great :)

Magnus Cappelen Solvang: I know - +The Thinking Atheist​​spent one of his podcasts talking about the fact that these are the most peaceful times we have ever had. War and famine is at a record low. The rare beheading posted online by a Muslim fanatic is spectacular on TV, but giving it that much attention only serves the terrorists.﻿

So, I've been looking into the Pentax 645Z, which seems pretty darn awesome. However, the cheapest price here in Norway is $3,000 more expensive than at B&H or Amazon. That's insane! And this is now, at a time when the exhange rate is at a 15-year high and almost everything is more expensive in the U.S. than here in Norway.

Anyone have a sane explanation for this madness?

Victoria Majeika: Hurr. Maybe check some neighboring countries like Sweden? Somewhere close enough that has a similar warranty? Isn't there a similar EU law? Pentax may have an international warranty too that you can use anywhere like Apple does. That;s an expensive camera, lol.

Joachim Dyndale: It's expensive alright, so I'm only halfway seriously considering it ;) And +Carl Cosby, I certainly can't complain... ;) The cost of living here sure is high - but with the ridiculously low interest rate on mortgages these days it's gotten a lot better.
